I am understood?

"I Am Understood?" by Relient K

Sometimes it's embarrassing to talk to youTo hold a conversation with the only one who sees right throughThis version of myselfI try to hide behindI'll bury my face because my disgrace will leave me terrified

And sometimes I'm so thankful for your loyaltyYour love regardless ofThe mistakes I make will spoil meMy confidence is, in a sense, a gift you've given meAnd I'm satisfied to realize you're all I'll ever need

[Chorus]You looked into my life and never stoppedAnd you're thinking all my thoughtsAre so simple, but so beautifulAnd you recite my words right back to meBefore I even speakYou let me know, I am understood

And sometimes I spend my timeJust trying to escapeI work so hard so desperately, in an attempt to create spaceCause I want distance from the utmost important thing I knowI see your love, then turn my back and beg for you to go

[Chorus]

You're the only one who understands completelyYou're the only one knows me yet still loves completely

And sometimes the place I'm at is at a loss for wordsIf I think of something worthy I know that its already yoursAnd through the times I've faded and you've outlined me againYou've just patiently waited, to bring me back and then
